ABSTRACT:
A holding device for an interior mirror (2) in vehicles which allows an adjustment of the height at which this interior (2) mirror is installed. A holding arm (1), which bears the interior mirror (2) at a ball-and-socket joint (1a), is fitted as rotating around a swivelling axis (4) in an oblique position, which runs through a pivot (3), which in turn is fitted by means of a spacing element (1b) at a certain distance (5) from the holding arm (1). The pivot (3) can either be fitted to the spacing element (1b) of the holding arm (1) or to a holding base (6) with which the whole device is fixed in the vehicle. In order to lock the height of the interior mirror (2) a manually operated locking device (7) or an automatic locking device (8), which links the holding arm (1) or the spacing element (1b) to the holding base (6), is used.
